Rest in peace, Old Girl

0

I just found my 9 year old australian bow, Old Girl, by the filter intake. She was alive this morning, she must have died early this afternoon.

Poor girl. She wasn't sick, I think old age finally got to her. She was looking pretty rough over the past several months. I wonder if maybe the younger bosemans gave her a bit more time; she livened up a lot when I got them a year ago.

I had her longer than I've been married. I'm sad, she was one tough fish.

She'll be buried in a special place in the flower beds around the house.

Beth, thats a long time for any fish to live and a testimonial that you did a good job.

So sorry for your loss.
